English abstract
A fixed drug eruption consists of erythematous patches that appear on the skin and/or mucous
membranes following administration of a drug which, once healed, leaves residual hyperpigmentation. We report
a 76-year-old male who presented to the Thriasio General Hospital, Athens, Greece, in 2016 with erythema,
oedema and blistering of the lower lip and glans penis following the administration of silodosin for benign prostatic
hyperplasia. The eruption regressed two weeks after silodosin was discontinued.
